"In this new book Jan White provides a unique how-to guide and "idea file" for everyone who needs to use charts and graphs imaginatively. He discusses why, how, when, and where to use different kinds of charts and graphs--pies, bars and columns, curve and surface diagrams, flowcharts, maps, tables--and how to combine them into informative, eye-catching hybrids. He also demonstrates how to use frames and boxes, discusses the interpretations of graphic symbols, and covers the techniques of chartmaking. Most importantly, this book shows how to convert factual information into fact-filled images with more than 960 "borrowable" illustrations that can be adapted to fit your needs." --Back cover
